The live performance - streamed live to Clownfest 8.
Actual stream starts at: 5:00
This track was made from scratch in the 24 hours before the Mr Wiggly performance on 25th March 2022 at 20:40 in the evening. It was a bit of a last minute experiment, and I'm totally blown away by the result. There's something about having a crazy deadline that forces you to concentrate more on the bigger picture, and less on the tiny details. It's often a disaster too - but in this case I'm on to something!
I'll finish the track with a proper radio edit, and pull a techno track out of the breakdown beat towards the end - today was a good day...
Taxi For De Niro
Everything you know
Everything you see
Everything you know is wrong
Big wheel turning around and around
Got to keep moving, got to make no sound
Nights come runnng, it's half past 3
My senses all mashed up, what a state to be.
So.
I got a three ring circus, under my skin
There's a whole in the hemline where the rain gets in
Then the witches come crawling, sick to my bones
It's a three minute warning with one second to go
So...
So where were you?
Were you hanging on the high-wire or lost among the vampires?
So where were you?
Were you speeding on the highway, singing I did it my way,
So where were you?
Were you high up on the hillside or drowning in a landslide?
Is it taxi for De Niro, or Ordinary Hero?
Brooklyn's burning out of control
Senses yearning with no place to go
There a change in the bassline with new plans to make
I'm on the deadline but it's a big mistake
So...
Kicking up quicksand, burying fools
Hiding in plain site is not against the rules
So why don't you stay here next to me
It's a funeral day here, don't you want to be free?
